Changes in LAS requirements cause minor drop in enrollment
By JERRY TROWBRIDGE
When major requirement changes for the College of Letters, Arts and Sciences were announced one month ago, few students or faculty realized how little they would affect class enrollment.
The elimination of the physical education requirement has not substantially affected
enrollment in PE activity courses, reports J. Tillman Hall, Physical Education Department chairman. Actual figures are not yet available.
The elimination of the history requirement has caused a drop in that department’s enrollment by only 15% to 20%, reports Richard Dales of the History Department.
New dorm costs up
Residents who live in the closing Touton, Stonier, or Town and Gown halls, will face cost increases of $70 per semester if they move into the new dorms.
Suites housing eight persons each in the new student dorm will cost each resident $270 per semester, $540 annually, an increase of $70 per semester from the present cost of Touton, Stonier, and Town and Gown halls.
The cost of a single room in the new structure will be $330 at semester, $660 a year.
Troy Camp to seek advisers
Applications for counseling positions with Troy Camp are available in the EVK lobby, Student Union 312-F and at the Student Activities Center desk.
Applications must be turned in to Student Union 312-F by Friday.
The camp will be held in the San Bernardino Mountains from Aug. 26 through Sept. 26.
Troy Camp was first held in Friffith Park in the summer of 1948. when 16 counselors took 80 children from the university community on a camping trip.
Every year, children between 7 and 11 are chosen to attend Troy Camp. They come from 14 area elementary schools.
Board is not included in the price of either the suite or the single room. It will cost an additional $400 per semester.
Rooms in the new 14-floor student apartemnts will cost from $130 to $300 a month.
The cost of two-bedroom apartments will be $280 to $300 a month. The one-bedroom apartment prices will be $175 to $185 a month. Studio apartments will cost $130 to $140 a month.
There will be no increase in the cost of the other residence halls.
The student dorm, located at 1027 W. 34th St., will hold 340. The student apartments, at 1015 W. 34th St., will house 360. They will both open for fall, 1972.
“The drop is not as sharp as I expected. I would not have been surprised at a one-third reduction in enrollment,” Dales said.
The English department reports a loss in enrollment in English 102. In the past, students who transferred a three-unit English course from another college were required to take English 102. A three-unit “freshman” English course from another college now satisfies the English 101 requirement.
The change allowing students to take Classics 101 in place of English 101 seems to have had the least effect of all.
Jane Cody, Classics Department chairman, reports that enrollment in Classics 101 is lower than last semester, even considering the university-wide enrollment drop.
She adds that although the first announcement came in the Daily Trojan a month ago, Classics 101 has fulfilled the English 101 requirement since September.
“Some advisers have even denied that Classics 101 fulfills the requirement,” she said, believing that as soon as the acceptability of Classics 101 is widely known, enrollment will increase.
Med Center to add 1,500-bed hospital
By WILLIAM BLACKTON
A 1,500-bed hospital will be built at County-USC Medical Center soon, Allen W. Mathies, Jr., associate dean of the School of Medicine, said.
This external change is only the start of a plan for the moderiza-tion of health care at County-USC Medical Center.
For the last year 18 task forces, composed of students and faculty members ofthe Schoolof Medicine, have been hard at work, analyzing the problems of modern health care and health education and recommending changes.
Under the direction of Associate Dean Phil R. Manning, the final recommendations of these groups will be published beginning this fall. The entire master plan should be ready by June, 1973.
“We had the same problem you always run into in education,” Dr. Manning said. “We wanted everything at once. But through consultations and surveys we tried to identify areas that seemed to be needed. There’s a set of preliminary guidelines now but they aren’t sacred.”
Dr. Manning said that research programs will continue at the School of Medicine. “The delivery of health care that isn’t any good isn’t worth anything, and for some problems, fundamental research is essential,” he said.
The school’s heavy emphasis on direct care would also continue, he said, and it would be made more efficient. The County-USC Medical Center is now the largest teaching hospital, on an in-patient and out-patient basis, in the United States.
The School of Medicine will always continue to train physicians, Dr. Manning said, but in the future it will probably expand its training programs for allied health personnel, such as nurses, dentists, physical therapists and physicians’ assistants.
The School of Medicine now has a large orthopedic training program at Rancho Los Amigos Hospital in Downey. Dr. Manning himself heads a program of postgraduate training for physicians in a community hospital.
Plans call for an increase in the size of the student body next year and possibly in succeeding years. Since 1965. the size of the freshman class has risen from 64 to 106. The federal government, in an effort to increase the number of doctors in the country, now gives medical schools a grant based on the number of students admitted.
One of the task forces developing the master plan headed by Dr. Russel Tyler, has been dealing with relationships between the School of Medicine and the community.
A Spanish-speaking priest in the community worked closely with the master plan committee before he left the area.
Another group not directly related to the school, the East Los Angeles Task Force, is also involved in community health planning in the area.
“Much of the local community input has to do with delivery of health care today,” Dr. Mathies said. “And then you talk about the education of students, which has to do with delivery of health care several years from now.”
The master plan will probably not affect the balance between direct care and research and teaching, Dr. Mathies said, but it will help the school to define the problems and to marshal its resources in these areas.
“There’s always a question of assessing your priorities as to where to put your energies, and that isn’t easy,” said Dr. Manning. “Right now, we’re committed head over heels in the delivery of health care in the County Hopsital. I’ve never walked down the wards in the County-USC Medical Center without feeling that I want things to get better.”
Some diseases, he said, such as cancer or sickle cell anemia, can only be temporized, not cured. Hopefully, the master plan task forces can work out a formula that will satisy everyone.
Student aid chief quits
Mortar Board to conduct off-campus housing survey
A survey on off-campus housing will be conducted by the national women’s senior honorary organization. Mortar Board.
There is no information now on apartment living, and the collection of data could help improve the community around the university.
Lynne Miyake, president of Mortar Board, said the survey will be conducted through a questionnaire about prices and
the quality of services in apartments.
Students living off campus are asked to cooperate by answering the questionnaires, which can be obtained this week from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in front of Tommy Trojan.
Mortar Board hopes to make recommendations on off-campus housing to the Commission on Student Life.
Jim Smith, director of student aid since June, 1970, has resigned for personal reasons, the university announced Tuesday.
Dan Nowak, acting vice-president for student affairs, said the resignation is effective immediately and that Pamela Walbom will serve as acting director of student aid. She came to the university in July, 1970, as assistant director of student aid and was previously a vocational training specialist in Oregon.
Smith, a popular figure on campus, was known for his willingness to give individual assistance and counseling to students. Before becoming director of student aid, Smith served as assistant director for five years.
In a petition circulated last, week, the university was requested to increase the resources of the Student Aid Office. Currently the office, with astaffof 13,dealswith more than
12,000 students and administers more than $12 million annually.
Smith would make no further comment Tuesday other than that his resignation was for personal reasons.
Pop trio to play
Craig Hundley, a 17-year-old pianist, will present a noon concert with his trio today at the Student Activities Center patio.
Originally labeled as a jazz musician, Hundley now describes his music as “combining classical and jazz elements with pop. rock and blues and ending up with a sound I feel is all my own.
He has played with Florida Symphony, as well as at two Las Vegas hotels. He has also appeared on network television shows.
